"Galfer Brake System" huh?
Those sure look like the oem rubber lines, calipers, rotors and master cylinder.

Cool Galfer sticker 'though...

Not so sure about the ABS....Yes on the ABS rims, but I can't see the ABS pump anywhere.

ABS is definitely AWOL.

Aside from the missing pump, there's not enough room under that rear cowl for the ABS brain and relay assembly.

I just pulled all that crap off of mine last weekend.

Abs or not, that is a really nice street fighter. I even like the scoops left on.

Judging by the apparent (lack of) wear on the tires and the out of the box look of the air filters I'd say aren't getting much use out of it.

I like it!
I think it should have white wheels, with a small orange pinstripe though.  :good:

I'm trying to figure out what that lime green tube is going over the rear brake caliper. Is it some sort of balancing apparatus??

I think it's just decorative but at the speeds I sometimes travel it would not be there long.  Dave

I like it!   I've been wanting someone to do a fighter with scoops for a while - I always pictured something more like one of the naked Triumph Speed Triple/Four/Whichever had, but this works well

Also like he paint scheme - reminds me of the "Gulf" Porsche 917's
